Clear the way

Ready to build, plant or enjoy

Whether you are building a new home, putting in a driveway, opening up a view or just taking back an overgrown yard, we clear the trees, brush and debris and leave the site ready for what comes next.

We remove what needs to go and protect what you want to keep. Brush is chipped, logs are hauled or cut to firewood, and stumps can be ground so the grading crew can start right away.

  • Selective clearing that protects the trees you keep

What clients are saying

Average rating
"After a big storm took down a 60-foot oak right next to our house, I was panicking. These guys were out the same evening, had it safely removed by the next morning, and left the yard spotless."
Margaret R.Asheville, NC
"We had three huge trees removed from our backyard, one right over the deck. I was nervous about damage, but the crew was meticulous. They used ropes and rigging and not a single branch touched anything."
David K.Asheville, NC
"They trimmed all eight of our mature maples and did an outstanding job shaping them. The arborist explained everything beforehand and clearly cared about the health of the trees, not just getting done fast."

FAQ

Lot clearing questions

Anything else? Call us at 828-367-9685.

How much land can you clear?

We handle residential lots, homesites, driveways and small acreage. Tell us roughly how big the area is and what is on it, and we will let you know the best approach.

Do you grind the stumps when clearing a lot?

Yes, if you want. Ground stumps make grading easier. If an excavator is coming to dig out stumps anyway, we can leave them tall so they are easier to pull.

Can you keep some trees and clear the rest?

Yes. Selective clearing is common. We flag the trees you want to keep and protect them while we work.

What happens to the wood and brush?

Brush is chipped and hauled away or spread on site as mulch. Logs can be hauled, cut into firewood or left for you.

Do I need a permit to clear land?

Clearing for new construction can fall under local land-disturbance and erosion-control rules, especially on steep or larger sites. Your builder or the county can tell you what applies before we start.
